Default Similar Experiences?

Hi, everyone.

About 3 weeks ago, I fell down my stairs and had a mild concussion. My CT scan was normal. I had a huge painful bump on the back of my head and a small bump on my forehead, above my eye. I experienced the typical symptoms: headache and feelings of fogginess. At this point, all of my symptoms have resolved except for one strange issue. About a week in, I noticed new floaters in my right eye and the feeling of heaviness or pressure in the same eye. I scheduled an appointment with an ophthalmologist on Monday and he said my eyes were healthy and found no issues. He said it could be that my sinuses were a little inflamed because of impact.

Nothing has seemed to improve with the right eye. The sensation I'm experiencing is very strange and hard to describe. It now feels tingly or numb? No pain, just strange. The eye also looks a little more asymmetrical than it ever did in the past. It's always been slightly asymmetrical, but not this much.

Has anyone had a similar experience? Or have any suggestions as to who I should see about this? How long I should wait to see someone?

I'd really appreciate the feedback!
Thanks!
